Occupation and occupation status
See 1971 Census Classification of Occupations. The codes used in this table number Occupation Codes consecutively, except for a few categories where two codes are given for an occupation, the first for employers or self-employed and the second for wage earners or helpers.
The association between the standard Classification of Occupations code and the code used in this variable is as follows:
